About this audiobook
In this heartwarming, feel-good novel, a snowstorm brings a cast of very different characters together at a sleepy New England inn, just in time for Christmas—and maybe even in time for a Christmas miracle.
A New England inn seems like the picture-perfect place to spend the holidays. But when a snowstorm shuts the roads and keeps them all inside, the guests find themselves worrying that this Christmas may not be exactly what they dreamed of.
Molly just needs to keep her head down and finish her latest book, but her writer’s block is crippling. The arrival of Marcus, a handsome widower with two young girls, is exactly the distraction she doesn’t need.
Hannah was hoping for a picturesque winter wedding, but her plans come crashing down when her fiancé calls everything off. She reconnects with her childhood friend, Luke, when he comes to check on his grandmother before the storm.
Jeanne and Tim don’t know how they’re going to keep the inn open another year—or how to bridge the distance between them in their marriage. With a flurry of unexpected guests, they’ll have to work together to fix all the problems that crop up. But will it be enough to rekindle their relationship?
With faith, and a little bit of Christmas magic, the inn—and its inhabitants—might just make it through the holidays after all in this “beautiful story about strangers becoming friends…and having an unexpectedly joyous time” (Publishers Weekly).

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book, this story, so heartwarming and uplifting and wonderful! I loved it so much!
Definitely the perfect Christmas book just like the perfect Hallmark Christmas movie!
I just Le sighed in contentment over this book! So many warm fuzzies and the best Christmas book I've read in a while! Go read it Now!!!1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really enjoyed it. The stories embedded within were heartwarming. Personally, I would have preferred more of a focus on God and not on the delusion of Santa Claus. Well written with beautiful emotions throughout.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Such a cute story. I don’t usually listen to audio books and this was easy to follow.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Just absolutely lovely. The perfect holiday read when you're in the mood for something cozy. Predictable? Yes, of course and it doesn't disappoint. But instead of eye-rolling clichés, there's just enough real life seeping in that it rings true. Financial problems, the inevitable distance that can grow in a marriage, and loneliness. One absolute standout element is the descriptions of the food. If that appeals to you it's worth the read for that alone. I loved it! If you're looking for a holiday read with a happy ending and a touch of romance, this one is a perfect fit.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was so good! I flew through this one so fast. It's so delightful, from start to finish! 100% reminds me of a Hallmark Christmas movie.This story is about making the best of unplanned circumstances. A mixed cast of characters gets snowed in at the Evergreen Inn over Christmas. I love stories with an Inn setting and I really love stories where people get snowed in over the holidays, so this one was super enjoyable for me. IT has everything from snow and sleigh rides to holiday meals and Santa Claus. Every character has a little bit of a backstory, but the story mostly features how everyone spends their time together. I was tearful at the end, which I loved. It's really so, so good and I can't wait to reread it over and over again.Audiobook Notes: This narrator was new to me, but she did a great job with this one. The thing that stood out the most to me was the way she read with the perfect amount of emotion to go along with every scene, from the sad scenes to the most incredibly happy scenes and everywhere in between. I'm happy recommending it as a holiday listen.Title: The White Christmas Inn by Colleen WrightNarrator: Samantha DeszLength: 7 hours, 51 minutes, UnabridgedPublisher: Simon & Schuster Audio

I just le sighed in contentment over this book! So many warm fuzzies and the best Christmas book I've read in a while! Go read it Now!!! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The White Christmas Inn by -Wright_ Colleen This book follows the people who show up for the wedding, one who is there to write a children's story as she's alone she wants peace and quiet and many others who live in the area and some who are stranded due to the snow storm.Each person has their own problems and what I love about this book are the ages of the people and their particular problems.The big snow storm hits in VT and all along the NE of the US. Wedding party shows up all but the groom. Others show up when the roads are closed.There is no food at the inn as the caterer can't make it there with the food truck. Love how they are given what they need to survive from neighbors. Love also how they get the supplies.Other intense problems are dealt with and each finds their own solution. Would love to read the next book, although this is not a series, it'd be cool to have them all show up a few years down the road to catch up.Christmas and the decorations and smells of good food only enhance this book.I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).
